    improved loading speed.
    Your sessions with many Altiverbs will load quicker than ever.


    WHAT IS NOT NEW IN 8
    Wait? What?
    This is what Altiverb 8 continues to deliver, just like Altiverb 7 (and earlier) has been delivering for two decades:

      • Backward compatibility, Altiverb 8 opens in sessions/projects that were made with Altiverb since 2006 and the session/project will sound the same.
      • All IRs ever released for Altiverb.
      • New IRs will be added regularly, for free.
      • Fixes and support without yearly fees.
      • The option to sell and transfer your license.
      • Countless ways of manipulating the reverb sound with controls like reverb time, attack, brightness, pre delay, EQ, damping..
      • Revolutionary stage positioning control for placing single members of a group, ensemble or even a complete orchestra on their own individual spot on stage, in any room/concert hall

    so, no Apple Silicon support for Altiverb 7?
    that's all they say to paying customers who have been waiting past 3 years?

    € 1,027.29 (incl. BTW) for XL. Can you look at the upgrade price using your registered email address?

    I bet it is an expensive upgrade from 7, when they won't even show it. I always look to see what upgrade pricing is like before buying something new. You can guess what your next upgrade costs will be like.

    Btw, after all those years, shouldn't they have released an update to Speakerphone? Seems, they haven't heard yet of VST3 or companies such as AudioThing.

    Overpriced, certainly. Over-rated, I do not agree. Maybe years ago; but I do not see very many users hyping it up still, like they do even with simple old Valhalla.

    Well, that is certainly a carefully picked number. Anyway, Thanks for checking.

    Does anyone of you even know what a pita it is for a developer to keep up with new OSs dropping frameworks and changing architectures?

    Guys, just a reminder: Altiverb 8 is Mac only at the moment. The Windows version will be rolled out later.

    That's not a question of "knowing" , it's a question of "caring". People complain about all aspects of their jobs, all the time. Apple really do seem to be whipping through some of these new MacOS versions quickly. But is that so much different than programming for PC's where people install millions of randomly selected components and want them all to work? Apple spring these things on hardware vendors, too. A new macOS will be released, and users will wait a month for new software for an audio interface every time they do it. They blame each other and in the end, people just have to wait.

    Yes, but now you can activate it on your computer through ilok manager, a physical ilok is no longer necessary

    v7 was iLok already, so it's not really a change. But obviously in it's newer "actually keeping you out this time" more optimistic version.

    Is there anyone else that finds it crazy to release a product (especially a flagship product from a well-known developer) with only one out of the two target OSes? Why not just wait until both releases are ready?

    yeah this makes it soft ilok. But it can be still hard i think to remove the turdLok.

    i think i never used Altiverb even the older version, which was released by AiR.
